In my vimrc I have the following mappings:

set completeopt=longest,menuone,preview
inoremap <C-h>    <C-n> 
inoremap <C-k>    <C-p>
inoremap <Leader>k <C-x><C-k>

I want to be able to navigate up and down in the dictionary completion list I get with <Leader>k by using <C-h> and <C-k>. However, both move down in the list, contrary to the behaviour I'd expect as I have them mapped to <C-n> and <c-p>. Any idea why this doesn't work? The keybindings behave the way they should when I access keyword completion, so I'm not sure what I might have done wrong.

Welcome to [vi.se]! Not that it should affect things, but can you [edit] and add your <Leader> for completeness? – D. Ben Knoble Oct 16 '19 at 15:18
